Louise Redknapp, 50, flaunts her age-defying physique in a black bikini as she enjoys a girls' trip to Manhattan
Louise Redknapp flaunted her age-defying physique in a black bikini as she enjoyed a girls' trip to Manhattan on Sunday. The singer, 50, looked incredible in the album of holiday snaps, as she stunned in her swimwear which she layered under a white shirt and paired with long black shorts. She appeared in high spirits for her trip as she could be seen posing in front of the Big Apple's famous skyline. Louise and her friend also shared a picture looking very glamourous in a white dress which featured a choker design. Alongside her fun Instagram post in the states, the blonde beauty penned: 'A little girls trip with Sue'. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Louise's trip comes after the singer revealed if there are wedding bells on the horizon with her younger boyfriend, Drew Michael. The happy couple have been dating since October 2023 and have gone from strength to strength. The singer moved on with Drew after her split from Jamie Redknapp in 2017 after 19 years of marriage. They share two children together Charlie, 20, and William, 16. Now in a new interview as she releases her new album Louise has gushed over her partner after her tough marriage breakdown and spoken candidly about their future plans. She told The Sun: 'Drew's great. We're having a lovely time together. It took me a long time to get to that place and be open about anything. 'I was very guarded and scared. But I'm really enjoying having special times with someone. He's a great guy and super-kind.' Asked if there are wedding bells on the horizon she added: 'Oh, I'm not even thinking that far ahead. I'm not even going there. 'I just want to be proud of this and I want to really enjoy it. I've met a really great guy and I'm really happy. But you never know what the future holds.' She added in the interview that her two sons really get on well with Drew which makes life much easier. Louise also hit back at 'toyboy' criticism due to their nine-year age gap. She said being branded a 'cougar' is 'water off a duck's back' to her and that 'age is irrelevant' as she doesn't 'feel older than him'. The interview comes after she recently revealed why she was painted as the 'villain' following her split from ex-husband Jamie. Louise opened up about being accused of walking out on her family and how everyone had an 'opinion'. She told the Independent: 'I was the villain. I'd been lucky in my career because for many years I didn't really have a lot of scrutiny. Then bang, everybody's got an opinion.' 'Anything someone could perceive as negative, I cut out. Nothing I said was right. To defend myself was wrong. To not defend myself was wrong. I felt like I was walking up a one-way street with just nowhere to go on it.' Elsewhere Louise said she is now ready to push out of her comfort zone and she even features a number of 'sex noises' in her new single. She is preparing to release a new album Confessions and is really adamant about making 'progressive music' instead of being 'nostalgic'. Louise said she doesn't care what people think despite friends questioning whether there are 'too many sex noises' in her new track Get Into It, which features moans of ecstasy. Speaking about co-writer Jon Shave, who worked on Charli XCX's album Brat, she said: 'I got a text from Jon asking, "Are there too many sex noises on this?". And I was like, "Jon, there can never be too many sex noises!" 'I've had a lot of feedback like that. And I do understand it. I've always kept in my lane, done what people expected. Now I'm saying, 'f*** it!' It came after Louise discussed her divorce from Jamie on the Happy Place podcast and credited her two sons for keeping her going during the breakup. She said: 'If I didn't have my kids, I think I would've just given up. I think I just knew that my kids were my everything and they needed me.' The singer admitted that the public scrutiny of her marriage breakdown made the situation even harder to deal with. She added: 'But I can honestly say, when you're going through something so personal in your own turmoil in your own way, but then to get the barrage of judgment and nastiness. 'I never realised people could be so unkind and say such terrible things. I blew my mind.' 'I was going through a lot as it was, I was trying to be strong for my kids, whatever had gone on in our life was private - which I do believe that you're entitled to no matter what. 'And God, I was such a villain, and I was breaking like I was absolutely breaking. 'Beyond what I thought it was possible for a human to break and all along I'm still trying to be a mum. 'And it was just like every time I went out, and I was trying to put a brave face on and do things, like that was wrong if I didn't. 'I felt like everything I did was so wrong.' Following the split, Jamie found love with Swedish model Frida Andersson and they tied the knot in 2021 before having a son together.

Lousie Redknapp, 50, wows fans as she shows off her toned body in a bikini on girls' holiday
POP BEAUTY She recently spoke to The Sun about her new relationship LOUISE Redknapp wowed fans as she posed in a bikini top on her girls' holiday to New York. The 50-year-old star shared a snap of herself enjoying the sunny weather in the Big Apple. 5 5 5 Throwing her hands in the air, Louise flaunted her toned figure in the top and low cut shorts. She captioned her shots: "A little girls trip with Sue." Fans were quick to comment on her holiday snaps, with one saying: "Wow u look incredible". Another said: "Still stunning after all these years!" Louise found love again almost two years ago with boyfriend Drew, 41. Since then, they've appeared inseparable, often enjoying music events and spending their summers attending festivals, including Glastonbury and Boardmasters. If Louise hasn't been going to festivals, she's been performing at them, with the singer launching a comeback with her Greatest Hits celebrating her career to date. She's also just released her fifth solo album Confessions. The Strictly winner was with ex Jamie Redknapp for 20 years and they share two sons. 'What's great is (Drew) is brilliant on a friendship level with the boys,' she told The Sun last month. Louise Redknapp says she felt 'the lowest a human could get' when she split from husband Jamie and 'almost gave up' 'They get on great with him. And that, for me, is super-important. There's just a real mutual respect there. Obviously Beau is still at school, but we spend a lot of time together.' The nine-year age gap inevitably led to Drew being described as her 'toyboy' and Louise being referred to as a 'cougar'. But it's 'water off a duck's back,' she added. 'For me, age is irrelevant – within reason – but he's not 22. I think it's more about the person and the life experiences and the connection that's important.' However, Louise isn't thinking about walking down the aisle a second time. 'Oh, I'm not even thinking that far ahead. I'm not even going there. Manifesting is a real hint to Drew. 'I'm not going to lie and say it isn't. But it's also a life lesson to be present in the here and now, so I'm not thinking down the line. I'm enjoying my relationship, my kids, my album and my life." After their split her ex Jamie went on to marry model Frida Andersson in 2021. 5 5
